If the display reports that it can do 16 bits-per-color, but your display driver can't do it, then it should choose a configuration that it supports. Similarily for the color encodings. If you can't generate YCrCb444 with your hardware, then it's the driver's job to know about that and select the next appropriate configuration. But hard-coding this is not the right solution because the value in DT may end up conflicting with what the display reports. Thierry
